Movement fly two 105

They look sick af and I found a nice deal on them. Can't really find a lot of reviews of them online tho. Have any of ya'll rode them? How did they perform?
 
Anything Movement is a bit of a mystery tbh. Only thing I've ever heard is that the fly two series is awesome to ride, although do bear in mind they're pretty heavy and quite stiff, but thats probably what let's Laurent de Martin pull off those insane tail presses he does.

I'm getting some 115s mounted tomorrow actually, but I think [tag=241854]@animator[/tag] can tell you something about the 105. Either way, sales on movement are super good this time of year so I'd definitely cop
 
Talked to a dude that used them for all mtn riding. He loved them. Suprisingly stiff but it felt super solid. I’d say go
 
I skied them when model was called fly catcher 105. If I recall correctly, shape is still the same, only stiffness changed a bit. These skis were pure fun. Very soft shovels, very jibby, however underfoot they were stiff. My only complaint was that the quality was below average. They used full cap instead of semi-cap or full sidewall + edges were thin + skis are made somewhere in africa (lol)

I think they use semi-cap now. The durability is like the only thing I was kinda worried about, because a friend of mine broke a pair of 95s in just a few days.

Tunisia right? It's a fairly low cost manufacturing market in very close proximity to Europe, doesn't mean much in regards to quality really.

well, I mean I'm glad they found a way to cut costs and up their revenue, but I've seen durability issues like extreme topsheet chipping and topsheet delam, edge separation. This was 3-4 years ago when my friends shop had them for demo. Maybe they upped the quality, dunno. But their pricing is not cheap in any way
